We looked around the harbour and went on a boat trip of the harm=bour and sandbanks which was very interesting. We were due to go the the speedway but this was cancelled due to the weather which was disappointing but the speedway was really easy to find and there looked like there would be ample parking. We also spent time in Bournemouth.
We ate at the Quay café where we had breakfast it was fab

Lovely resort, lots to see and do.
Lovely resort, lots to see and do. Harbour boat trip was well worth it as was to Jurassic Coast cruise. Lots of varied mealtime opportunities as well as the usual fish and chips. Plenty of traditional pubs on offer. I highly recommend a visit to the RNLI college and All Weather Lifeboat Centre where all the lifeboats are made, you can even stay there.

We did not stay long enough to do very much but the St. Tropez lounge was an excellent restaurant that we ate in for dinner. Verry good food and friendly service. If you like boats there are some amazing yachts in the harbour.

Excellent location for either staying within the area or travelling to interesting places within Dorset. Great local facilities within a short walk for dining,recreation and shopping. Would recommend El Rancho and Da Vinci for food and perhaps the Poole Arms for a quiet, friendly drink. The Jurassic Coast boat trip is one not to be missed with its visit round Old Harry Rocks to Swanage. Buses provide a great service but there are plenty of parking areas available. A day trip to Kingston Lacey (National Trust) was exceptional.

Unfortunately the weather wasn't our friend so we didn't see much of Poole. We did drive 15 mins to Durley Chine where we parked for walk into Bournemouth. We also took a trip to Hengisbury Head (25 min drive).

Poole is a vibrant busy Marina town.
Poole is a vibrant busy Marina town. The High Street has an interesting variety of shops (including the flagship Lush store). The streets are lean, and felt safe. Parking is well signposted but not cheap.
If you have time then make an advance booking for the Harbour, Sandbanks, and Islands Cruise. We’ve done it twice and the commentary is excellent. Entertaining and informative.
We strongly recommend the fish and chip shop by the Lifeboat Station. Huge legions of really fresh succulent fish, lovely crisp batter, and a generous portion of chips.
There is blue-badge disabled parking directly opposite the Poole Quay Hotel and near the High Street. The town is flat and easy to get around for anyone with limited mobility.
We loved Poole and are already planning our next trip in a month. We have no intention of paying £30/night extra to bring our two pampered house cats. For £90 extra for three nights we need to see we are getting something extra - not a standard cold room.
There was a warm welcome at the Rose and Crown. Large room, feels more like a boutique hotel. Large bed with great linen. Excellent powerful shower. Complimentary fresh milk and water were nice.
Good quality pub food in the restaurant. Was busy for a Tuesday evening when we stayed and there was a good atmosphere. Heather and Marcus kindly let us have breakfast slightly earlier as we had a ferry to catch. Would definitely return. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The location, easy parking inside hotel grounds; bus stops to Poole and Bournemouth right outside hotel; very comfortable beds; dining room was bright and airy although due to covid restrictions no buffet allowed, and no fresh fruit available at breakfast. The cooked breakfast was served to order and very nice too. The beach was only 3/4 minutes walk but a steep hill to climb on way back.
We enjoyed a lovely 2 night stay with our dog feeling very welcome. The breakfast was very well organised, lots of options to choose from and delicious and we were really set up for the day.. Great location and nice walk into Poole. Debs and Doug were very hospitable, gave us lots of ideas of places to visit and we will definitely return again.
We ate one night in the restaurant which was fabulous. much better than expected. Although the hotel is old, it was very clean and comfortable with evidence of ongoing expenditure with new carpets and soft furnishings. The staff were very helpful, you knew immediately upon entering that you were in a better quality hotel.
We had a very friendly welcome, our rooms were clean, comfortable and spacious and our breakfast was tasty with plenty of choice. The location of the hotel was right by the quay with beautiful views. Everyone at the hotel was very welcoming and friendly. Would definitely return when next in Poole.
Lovely location perfect for visiting family in poole.
Sandbanks Hotel was a little underwhelming to be honest.
Obviously an Economy room was how it was billed and economy room was exactly how it was presented.
Very dated and tired Hotel.
Staff were acceptable and whole experience was ok just!!!
Fantastic location, opposite Poole Park. Easy walking distance to town centre. Easy check in. Handy communal facilities. Great en suite shower!.
A great stop over hotel for the ferry port.
Close to local shops for all the little things you forgot.
Close to various takeaway restaurants.
Easy parking and great staff, there was a little hick-up on arrival and the way the staff sorted the very minor problem was second to none. Great room! I can’t recommend staying here more it will be go to Poole hotel from now on. Breakfast was spot on too.
The location is stunning. A heritage hotel which is right on the beach with the waves lapping below the restaurant terrace and the poolside area. Stunning views over the entrance to Poole Harbour. Lots of activity to watch passing by.
A great welcome, well equipped family room and a fantastic breakfast. Hosts very accommodating and helpful, even serving breakfast before 6:30am so we could head off early. Perfect for a stay when using the Poole ferry terminal
Location was superb - less than 10 min walk to Poole Quay. Accommodation was large enough for two people and had everything you could need - and the general area was exceptionally clean, well kept and felt safe.
Perfect location and just a stroll from Poole old harbour, this place is exceptionally clean and comfortable with a stunning view watching the birds fly by, very relaxing place to unwind for a couple of days 👍
Great location on Poole Quay. Terrific view from breakfast room overlooking Poole Harbour. Buffet style breakfast was also enjoyable. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Hotel was cheaper than others in area.
We had a wonderful stay at HDV Poole. Staff we so attentive and eager to help with any question we had. Food was excellent and the room & bathroom were huge! I would definitely recommend a visit.
Great little hotel, in one of the best locations in Poole - Ashley Cross is a hive of activity with lots of great bars and restaurants. Well worth a visit if you haven't been.
